Summary
This privately owned earth dam stands at a height of 27 feet and has a storage capacity of 144 acre-feet. With a low hazard potential, the dam is not currently regulated or inspected by state agencies, making it a crucial structure for water resource management in the area.
Situated on the TR to Black Creek, Bloom Lake Dam plays a vital role in providing water for fire protection, stock, and small fish ponds in addition to irrigation. Despite its low hazard potential, the dam's condition has not been officially rated, and there is no established Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place. However, its strategic location and purpose make it an essential asset for water supply in the region.
The dam's presence contributes to the overall water management system in Shelby County, Missouri, supporting agricultural activities and ensuring a reliable water supply for various purposes. As a key infrastructure for water resource management, Bloom Lake Dam underscores the importance of sustainable practices and continuous monitoring to uphold its functionality and safety for the surrounding communities.

Condition Assessment
SatisfactoryNo existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.
Hazard Potential Classification
HighDams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
